EV Shows New Model In Their Mid-Size Line Compact Line Array Family: XLC127DVX [ Winter NAMM 2007 ]
The XLC127DVX isa three-way, full-bandwidth line array element featuring EV’s newest DVX 3121 12-inch and DVN2065 6.5-inch woofers. The enclosure remains unchanged, featuring integrated Quick-Rig™ rigging along with a high-frequency section incorporating EV’s unique Hydra™ plane wave generator with two ND-6 large format compression drivers. The XLC127DVX will be also available as an installation model: the XLCi127DVX incorporates simplified, cost-reduced rigging and is ideally suited for permanent installations. The XLC127DVX ships as triamp only model; a mid/high crossover network for biamp applications is an available option.
When asked why EV has updated a product that has established itself as industry standard, Christian Glueck, Director, Product Management, commented: “Shortly after the launch of X-Line Very Compact and its 12-inch DVX woofer-equipped XS212-LF cabinet, we received customer requests about our plans to use this new, very powerful speaker in the XLC. This led us to take a deeper look at our transducer program, resulting in the development of a brand new 12-inch LF driver--the DVX3121--and a new mid-bass driver, the DVN 6.5-inch.
“Once you have listened to this new combination of components, you will appreciate why we decided to offer an “upgraded” version of the world’s most successful medium-size line array system. It’s not just about the 3dB more overall output: the level of sonic clarity for an arena-size system reaches new heights. To support all current customers of the XLC127+ we will offer an upgrade kit to turn an XLC127+ into an XLC127DVX.”
